My house randomly is burnt down?
So I made a safehouse with a few friends in Riverside and when I logged back on, the hosue was burnt to the ground and everyone is clueless as to how. Is it possible for houses to just randomly burn down? Nobody left an oven on because the power was out, we didn't have a generator, we have no idea how the house burnt down.

Campfire in house (or has roof above it) will cause fire. Also when you make a campfire on grass land then the fire may spread.

This kind of cases are most made by human players, sometimes unintentional, but sometimes just someone made a stupid plank/error and denied the involvement.

What most likely happened :

Server host did not save the game world after launching the server and before restarting or shutting it off (Need to use either /save or /quit commands)

When server booted up again it selected random houses for "survivor house" and "burned down house" which happened to be your house. Also safehouses and factions gets removed in this situation too.

I missed that part too. Then it's likely as exoduss and Enigma said.

Could there be an arsonist on the loose burning down safehouses?
